Counterflow to cool the oil in the lubrication system of a large industrial gas turbine. A double-pipe heat exchanger is used. Coolant flowing through the inner pipe (Cp=4178) J/kg.°C) and oil flowing through the ring channel (Cp=2005.5 J/kg.°C) mass flow rates are 0.2 and 0.4, respectively kg/s. Oil enters the heat exchanger at 60 oC and leaves at 40 oC. Water inlet temperature 30 is oC. The heat transfer coefficient on the ring side is 500 W/m2K. Diameter of thin-walled inner tube is 25 mm, the inner diameter of the outer ring is 45 mm. Pollution resistance in the inner pipe where city mains water is used It is 0.000176 m2K/W.

Hot water (Cp= 4.188 kJ/kg.K) with mass flow rate of 2.5 kg/s at 100 C enters a thin-walled concentric tube counterflow heat exchanger with a surface area of 23 m, and an overall heat transfer coefficient of 1000 W/m^2K. Cold water (Cp= 4.178 kJ/kg.K) with mass flow rate of 5 kg/s enters the heat exchanger at 20 C. After a period of operation, the overall heat transfer coefficient is reduced to 500 W/m^2K determine the fouling factor that caused the reduction in the overall heat transfer coefficient.
